Review in Boston Phoenix

Greg Cook, “Our digital landscape,” Boston Phoenix, April 28, 2008
Review of Nourishment: New Work by Jeffu Warmouth and Ellen Wetmore

Warmouth’s video installation is a satiric face-off between McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken joints. You order off interactive computer menus that feature a mix of conceptual and absurdist gags. One restaurant prepares your order (which often seems to involve Warmouth dumping a bucket of chickenish stuff on his head) while the other heckles (that guy will put anything in his burgers). A serious-silly joke about fast food and conceptual art, it’s a hoot.
